Christmas 2010

We had a wonderful Christmas at Chad's parents house in Hayesville, NC.  Mom and Larry joined us and we all got snowed in for the weekend.  Chad was very surprised to get an inflatable boat... we can already imagine the three of us relaxing on the water... catching a tan and making memories!
We really enjoyed spending time with Kiersten and Tony as well.  We all gathered around the dining table and played Mexican Train dominos.  I was apprehensive at first but it turned out to be a REALLY fun game that we couldn't stop playing.
These women all think alike.  Each of them, secretly got matching pajamas for us to wear.  Kiersten got the guys matching pjs.  Susan got the girls matching pjs and Mom got us monogrammed pjs (Mama, Mimi, Aunt Kiki and Gramma). 
Mom and Larry got out of town in the small break in the storm.  After they left the snow returned and we went outside to build a snowman.  Grandad and Gramma loved on little Miss Summer.

Gramma then started a fierce snowball fight!  In this photo she is getting a taste of her own medicine.  Susan had just nailed Doug with a snowball only to be receiving one in the back from Chad... and poor, innocent Summer is caught in the crossfire.
